Max Bullough was also cut from the team. He was suspended for the first four games of this season for violating the NFL's PED Policy last month. Bullough apologized on twitter when the news broke, taking full responsibility.

Bullough was eligible to participate in team activities and preseason games while suspended.

Clearly the Texans are showing no tolerance for players that were role players or special teamers for their roster. Both Bullough and Mumphrey only started three games last season for Houston. Mumphrey had 10 catches for 69 yards in 2016, and Bullough took part in 19 tackles over his time on the field last season.
